Hmm, true. I think I'll make it a max ratio of 0.35, but I will leave it
at 1% point per level, because I want the effect of leveling to be
noticeable before one starts getting very high level summoning.
(besides, by the time most characters have level 33 summoning, they are
at least level 50 overall usually, and already can get to most shops
easily.)
